When people talk about their favorite places to drink, most of the time it’s about what the vibes were like. In winery tasting rooms, one of the easiest ways to throw those vibes off is by having the somm give an unprompted seminar every time a new wine hits the glass. What too many wineries don’t realize is that once a customer walks through their door, that guest is already committed to spending money.

One of the most iconic classic cocktails, the Piña Colada, turns 70 this year. To be specific, it was on Aug. 15, 1954 that Ron Monchito Marrer, the head bartender at the Caribe Hilton hotel in San Juan, created the first Piña Colada using Don Q Gold rum. An instant hit, the drink quickly became world famous. The original Piña Colada was not the white rum-based, cherry-garnished frozen concoction that most people now think of, however.

Print Twelve Mile Limit Cocktail Recipe During the 18th century the US territorial waters were limited to 3 nautical miles. Throughout Prohibition it was legal to supply alcohol outside of these waters so parties hosted out at sea were common. This 3 mile limitation was later extended to 12 miles which led to the name inspiration for this Prohibition-era drink featuring grenadine.

The southern part of the United States, particularly Kentucky, is arguably the best known part of the country associated with whiskey. The historical migration of the Scotch-Irish into some of these regions, bringing along with them distilling traditions learned back home, is one of the cornerstones that helped establish the long heritage of spirits production in this area.

The Scofflaw cocktail was reportedly created by a bartender at Harry's New York Bar in Paris and was somewhat of a taunt to those back in the US that were unable to drink legally. These specs are more in line with a sour format (3/4 oz sweetener, 3/4 oz sour) but the original recipe called for far less of these ingredients resulting
